When I'm not watching Karen freak out videos my other preferred method of online entertainment is without a doubt Babushka memes. I've never owned an Adidas track suit and don't have any relatives from there, but the nuances of Slavic life resonate deep in my soul. For those unfamiliar, here are two of my recent favorites:
Genius, right? Maybe they resonate with me because I grew up down south and there really isn't much difference. So imagine how peaked my interest was when I heard Horrible Adorables based an entire art show off of Slavic fairy tales. And as you can see from the first photo they made tiny little Babushkas, who just like my southern grandma are known for ensuring you eat constantly any time you are visiting. I have never once been to her house where she didn't say I looked too skinny and immeadiately produced a five course meal. Afterwards I could be laying on the ground, stomach near to bursting and she would put desert on the floor next to me. She's nearly 100 years old, so she must be on to something there.
The show is on display now at Sally Centigrade in Colorado and the remaining pieces can be had by visiting their website at https://www.sallycentigrade.com.
